Mary:
I'm glad to know that God is working in your life. It is a good thing to thank him for answering our prayers, even when we are not sure about his answer! We need to trust that he answers in HIS time and HIS way.

About the minister you emailed- don't get discouraged. Ministers are very busy persons. Don't give up yet. And, why not visit the congregation and surprise the minister <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" /> ?

As you search for a church and search for a better understanding of God's Word, I pray that He will enlighten you. Hold on to Him! He never fails!
